Counselor's Corner
We’re excited to introduce a new monthly addition to our school newsletter - Counseling at the Creek!
Each month, our school counselors, Mrs. Holtzclaw & Mrs. Hooker, will share helpful tips, resources, and strategies to support students’ social, emotional, and academic growth.
This feature is designed to keep families informed, provide valuable insights, and strengthen the connection between school and home. Be sure to check it out each month!

Special Education Parent Toolbox
Tips and tools to support your child’s journey.
Learning doesn’t just happen at school—it happens every day at home too! Small, simple routines can make a big difference for your child’s growth.
- Reading Together – Read aloud for 10–15 minutes each day. Point to pictures, ask “what happens next,” or let your child turn the pages. Audiobooks and online read-alouds are also great options.
- Everyday Math – Count items while cooking, compare sizes of objects, or sort laundry by color. These small activities reinforce number sense, patterns, and problem-solving.
- Fine Motor Practice – Activities such as coloring, cutting with scissors, or playing with Play-Doh help strengthen the hand muscles needed for writing.
- Learning Through Play – Board games, puzzles, and building blocks encourage turn-taking, problem-solving, and critical thinking.
Consistent Routines – Set aside a short “learning time” each day at the same time (before bed, after snack, etc.) so your child knows what to expect.
Tip: Celebrate effort, not just the outcome. Praising your child for “trying hard” helps build their confidence and resilience.
Also, throughout the year, the GCS Special Education Department will be holding training sessions for parents of students with disabilities. Topics, dates, times can be found on the links below. Parents Register | English Flyer | Spanish Flyer
CCE Spirit Rock
RENT THE ROCK to Celebrate your Student and Support CCE PTA. The Chandler Creek Spirit Rock is now available for sign-ups!
The Chandler Creek Spirit Rock is a perfect way to send someone a " Happy Birthday" or show your school spirit! The Rock is also a PTA fundraiser- so ALL funds generated are used to pay for school programs and improvements!!!
The cost is $10 and you will have the rock for 24 hrs (5pm-5pm). Payment, via Member HUB, is required at the time you sign up. Dates are available on a first come, first serve basis and you may NOT reserve the rock for consecutive days!! Click on this link https://chandlercreek.memberhub.com/store or scan the QR code to pay.
You may start painting the rock at 5pm the day BEFORE you sign up so it will be ready for the morning carpool line. For example, if your child's birthday is October 8th (reserve October 8th on the sign up), you may start painting at 5pm on October 7th!! Please be respectful for our fellow Chandler Creek Painters and do not start painting the rock before your assigned time of 5pm.
Please do not paint the ground or any of the area around the rock. An adult MUST be present when painting the rock.
*** The PTA has the authority to remove/repaint any language or image that is deemed inappropriate.
